Daniel Joseph Lennon (born 6 April 1969) is a Scottish professional football manager and former player.

In his playing career, Lennon is best known for scoring a free kick for Raith Rovers against Bayern Munich during an UEFA Cup tie in 1995 and winning the Scottish Second and First Division as captain of Partick Thistle in 2001 and 2002.

It was at Raith, where he would also experience international football with Northern Ireland B.

Lennon began his managerial career with Cowdenbeath in June 2008. Having led the Blue Brazil to promotion from the Scottish Third Division to the First Division, he was appointed St Mirren manager in June 2010. He won the 2012–13 Scottish League Cup with the Buddies but his contract was not renewed in 2014. After a caretaker spell in charge of the Scotland under-21s, Lennon managed Alloa Athletic from April to December 2015.

Following a stint as acting head coach of Airdrieonians, Lennon was appointed Clyde manager in November 2017, where he remained for five years until October 2022. Under his management, Clyde secured promotion to Scottish League One in the 2018-19 season.

Lennon returned to Airdrieonians for a second spell as manager from August to October 2025.
